Getting a single page app to be sensibly indexed by Google is not easy. I think this is the most important point when people are deciding whether they should move their entire frontend layer to the browser in their new projects, and frankly, a lot of guys pushing (or developing) for single-page webapps don't get that. While it is possible to have a mix of client-side routes/pushState/server-side generated template, it's actually non-trivial. So I really don't see a lot of cut and dry separation of layers anytime soon until Google can start indexing sites that fetches data after the HTML structure has arrived. Big full-stack webapp frameworks are here to stay, tho we might see more webapp frameworks that are great at doing API first to emerge.
